Some of the issues I have or feel about society and what is happening to us....morally, I guess. i hate to use that term because morals are hazy at best. Each of us has a different set of "morals" so to speak. Based on religion, culture and/or lifestyle etc. So, hmmm where to go from here.
I guess the line being produced by said "PROGRESSIVES" is so blurred that humans of one sex or the other do not know their place. Men are not supposed to be men anymore and vice versa for women. No not all, bu the basic biology and genetics of men and women is being prodded by some to be "Neutral". Sorry, I do not like it and for one will not adhere to it. Yes some women can be as strong as some men and do the same jobs or excel in sports. But by and large men are the stronger sex in that regard. And women, biologically, are stronger to handle and produce children. Not to say that is their only place in the world. Believe me....men could not handle that. God bless them for their station.
I have no issue with men and women competing for jobs, work, sports etc. But the reality is, most women cannot do the same things as most men. And on that same token, most men cannot do the same things as most women. So with this we have men who do not know or feel they cannot be "MEN" as used to be expected of them. With the women's rights movement, a lot of men became lost. Don't worry, I was not one of them. I heard many times as I reached for the door, in California, "I don't need you to open the door for me" or "What, do think I am weak " and many others. LOOK, if I did not offer or attempt to do this, my mother would whoop my ass!!! I was taught to respect women, the elders, and others. One ways to show that was to hold a door open for others, be they men, women, elderly and even the disabled. look everyone needs a hand once in a while. But mostly in California and the North is where I got the proverbial "STARE of Death" when attempting to do so.
That is putting the issue in simplistic terms though. Men are supposed to be the protectors, the ones who give their lives for the family, tribe, country etc. Not to say women do not or have not done so as well. The motherly instinct to protect her children is very powerful, but so is the man's desire to do the same. Women have fought fiercely and bravely along side men for years, and I am proud of them. But men are lost. The fight of being a manly man by the powers that be, is messing with their minds and many do not know how to handle the NEW realities expected of them. Their biology and genetics, the desire to fight, brandish a weapon, defend something is being taken away.
This idea of gender neutrality is bogus. We are NOT the same and never will be. Yes there are those who cross over and are more feminine on the male side and more masculine and the female side. I am am not just talking about the gay /lesbian life or "alternative" lifestyle as they are calling it. That is life. And for some it is a choice. I do not condemn them as others and society should not condemn men and women who want to be more "traditional" if that is what you want to call it.
For me, I will open the doors, pull out the chairs and even stand when I remember to, and show respect as I was taught. If offends someone...........so be it. No one has the right to never be offended. And on that, I have another whole blog to write!!! LOL
